I'm confused (probably because I don't understand Intel Xeon). Isn't that Haswell, and thus now two generation back?
- toast0 11y agoE5 v3 is haswell, it looks like these are broadwell (not skylake, like in the consumer land). Broadwell was delayed in consumer space and didn't have many skus, not sure what we'll see with server skus...
- wmf 11y agoIntel's desktop/laptop chips have gotten far ahead of Xeons, so Haswell Xeon is still "current" (for a few weeks).
- Sanddancer 11y agoThe Server chips are pretty much always a generation back, having a development cycle to try to fix any erratum that may have popped up, as well as to do work to rearrange cores, cache, add a good amount of IO, and ditch things like the onboard graphics. Intel's supposed to be releasing the E5 v4s in the next few weeks, which will be Broadwell based. edit: These are also Broadwell based, supplanting the Haswells they released last year.
